2. I'm not aware of any permanent screen problem (e.g. burn in) by disabling the refresh. Also, some commercial e-readers with the same screen have a feature like this.
Awesomeness.
It's always active on my Kindle since day 1. Much more enjoyable reading. Refresh whenever I want/need/feel like it.

Do you think we can manipulate drivers in such a way that screen refresh rate becomes faster? Here I'm not talking about this module and the perfect functionality that it provides, but rather more about geekmaster's video player (which was fairly painfully slow on DX. ?
